The Le Mont Moelleux is exceptional and has a long life to come. Rich texture leads in to a massive wave of green apple and spice. It is supported by minerality, freshness and smokey, savoury inflections.
95pts Vinous: The 2023 Vouvray Moelleux Le Mont is a ripe, round, serious, suit-wearing wine style that's upright and conservative. It’s sweet (74g/l) but never feels luscious, and yet there's a tropical character to the fruit that gives richness to this reserved style. The effect of the flint is clear in the 2023’s sense of freshness. It's textured, pure, balanced and harmonious.-Rebecca Gibb
94pts View from the Cellar – John Gilman: Domaine Huët’s 2023 Moelleux bottling from the Le Mont vineyard is simply beautiful on both the nose and the palate. The bouquet wafts from the glass in a complex blend of yellow plums, sweet quince, honeycomb, chalky soil tones, incipient notes of heather, apple blossoms and a top note of gentle lanolin that will become more pronounced with the passage of time. On the palate the wine is bright, full-bodied and seamlessly balanced, with a beautiful core of fruit, a fine spine of acidity, good soil undertow and a long, complex and moderately sweet finish. This is a very elegant, filigreed rendition of Moelleux which will age like time cannot touch it! 2024-2085.
